First Blog......Multiple Times

Since this is the second rendition of my first blog, it just doesn’t have the same ...feel to it for me, but here goes.  I’m doing this because it seems like a lot of people find great satisfaction and theres got to be something to it.   Might as well start off with a thump.   I work 48-60 hours a week as an emergency room nurse, try to take care of three teenage girls, and recently found out that I STILL manage to play halo 1-4 hours a day.   Cant for the life of me figure out why I suck so bad at the game.   God hates me?   Why make me so terrible at something I love so much?   Sighs.   I just finished a 60 hours in 5 days week and this morning I walked 4 miles.    I am finding that only by working out almost every day do I have the physical strength to actually work like I have to at the moment.   Which brings me to the next thing?   I have my first child support hearing on Friday.....finally.    If you are thinking of divorcing, plan on a very long protracted year or so of BS.    Hopefully soon I wont have to work 20 hours of overtime to not be able to pay my bills:)   Its funny how things work.   The other night, the parents of the woman my soon-to-be-ex lives with were in my ER.   I learned more in 20 minutes about what he is/is not doing than I have in the past 6 months.   He is not working, not fixing up her house, not getting along with her daughter(she’s moving out), not paying child support (well, duh), he is going out to fancy dinners, steaks at home a lot, driving all over the tri state and further and buying things for his 180 gallon reef tank, taking trips to the Caribbean. ; When her parents asked when is he going to get a job, they are told he "isn’t ready to go back to work yet".  I’m really looking forward to what the judge has to say about why he quit his electrical engineering/ automations control job and isn’t working now.   My daughters are looking forward to hearing him explain why too

Great Looking Family! I always enjoy the few times I get to game with you. By the way, I already thought you were the busiest woman in the world before I knew about your job. How do you do it?

I hope things go well for you in your CS case. We have been trying to get money from my husbands ex for a while now. She is roughly $10,000 in the hole for CS and medical expenses and she currently lives off of the state. She just plain refuses to help out. We are headed back in for a second time and this time we are going for contempt of court and the chance to withold her drivers license (except for working needs). They just passed a law in Illinois allowing a judge to put a person in jail, withold a license, take tax refund monies, and a few other things. Unfortunately for us, the laws swing more for women collecting from men vs. the other way around. Anyway, I totally understand your frustration. They wanted to make the babies, but as soon as stuff didnt work out in the relationship - they dont want the responsibility. Take care!!! BigpunishrsWife

Good looking kids! Keep in mind, aside from the support, the jackass is somebody elses problem. And by the sound of things, people dont think so highly of him.

I hear that year thing about the divorce. Mine was a simple one and I filed in September of 05 and it did not get final till April 25 this year. We had no house, no child, no nothing ... and yet it still took that long. Good luck with it all. I would say if you need anything just ask but I dont really remmember much of that year.

I dont understand people like you. Its impossible to work 60 hours a week, raise three daughters, game everyday, support PMS Clan, beat me in the Over Forty Tournament and go to gaming conventions/LANS. People like you cant be real. Maybe some of your energy will come through the ethernet to me when we play. The good kind of energy. Not the beat the crap out of me kind. Take care.

Ok, so I found out what kills the blogs and Im %100 sure of what it is. Its FasterFox. The extension actually tries to prefect data from the web server so that it can increase speed. Well, What it is actually doing is deleting the data as it pre caches. You can uncheck that box and its possible to still use the extension with out the prechaching features. I honestly wouldnt try though. Wouldnt want you lose your blogs.
